Hi Dan,
I did this to my 1979 Spit back in 2000. I fabricated (there's that "F" word
again) a "proof of concept" air box. Between the air box and the filter, I use
a rubber hose I found at the hangar, strengthened internally with tin cans
(Hormel chili cans work well). Hey, I said it was proof of concept! Not sure if
it develops any additional power, but it looks cool. I have pictures on my web
site.

Subject: K&N Cold Air Intake?
Has any ever tried to fit a cold air intake and filter kit to a Weber DGV in
a 1500 Spit? I wondered if a cold air snorkel with a K&N filter in front of
the radiator to the top of the Weber could get more HP than the Longflow
filter that I have now. It appears that I only have two inches of clearance
above the Weber, which doesn't allow a lot of room for any K&N plenum
adapter.
Does anyone out there make a wide, flat air plenum to fit the top of the
Weber with a snorkel to the front of the radiator?
